Video of the Day: Emirates Airbus A380 3C-Check

Have a look at the timelapse of the 3C-Check of Emirates Superjumbo. In 1:52 minutes the timelapse shows you 55 days of 3C-checks.
The clip quite clearly shows how the aircraft is being stripped down to its hull to renew parts, ensuring passenger safety and maintaining comfort and luxur level.
The particular jet (Registration: A6-EDA) was delivered in July 2008 and flown 20 million km (That is almost 27 return Earth-Moon trips) since its 3C-check in 2014. In those years the superjumbo transported 1.2 million passengers in 3000 flights.
Impressive numbers for an equally impressive aircraft!
